Article Synopsis
- Recent advancements in tactile coding suggest that distinguishing textures may rely on analyzing frictional movements; this study explores whether isolated pulse shapes can be perceived.
- Participants were tested on their ability to identify deviations in pulse shapes through a discrimination task involving three consecutive pulses; many achieved over 75% accuracy.
- The findings indicate that while isolated pulse shapes can be perceived, the quality of this perception is significantly affected by sensory adaptation to previous tactile stimuli.
